Are you passionate about marine science and the intersection of offshore development and fisheries?
ROSA 2026 internship provides an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to our mission to provide for and advance regional scientific research, monitoring and understanding of fisheries and the interactions with blue economy activities (in state and federal waters of the U.S. through collaboration and cooperation).
What You’ll Do:
- Support ongoing offshore science projects and initiatives.
- Collaborate with ROSA staff on impactful research efforts.
- Participate in meetings, workshops, and events related to ocean development and fisheries science.
Who We’re Looking For:
- Current graduate students with a strong interest in marine science or environmental studies.
- Individuals with excellent research, analytical, and communication skills.
- Proficiency in Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, and Zoom are required; experience with GitHub, science communication, and graphic design is a plus.
Details:
- Duration: 10 weeks starting in May 2026 (part-time).
- Location: Remote (with a preference for candidates able to work during ET hours).
This remote, paid internship is designed for motivated graduate students who want to contribute to real-world ocean and fisheries science at the intersection of offshore development, data, and policy. Interns will work alongside a diverse network of fishing industry leaders, researchers, energy developers, and state and federal partners on projects such as:
- Translating regional fisheries and offshore wind research into accessible fact sheets and visual tools
- Improving stakeholder-facing research tools like FishFORWRD
- Supporting regional workshops and Advisory Council engagement
- Exploring emerging issues such as climate impacts on fisheries and ecosystem monitoring technologies
This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience, engage in high-level regional conversations, and help shape science that supports sustainable ocean management.
